Would restoring a MacBook Pro (non-Retina) with a MacBook Pro (Retina) backup cause problems?

I have a Retina MacBook Pro and I recently bought a non-Retina MacBook Pro. I wanted to have all my files and settings from my old MacBook on my new one so I backed up the Retina one using time machine and I used that backup to set up my new MacBook. Will doing this cause any problems to the system?
Thanks,
CK
P.S. I have been experiencing some issues with wifi (it drops the connection often) and I am not sure if that is related.

It should not. Read this:

Buying a mac book pro to use with final cut pro

does anyone have know what specifications I should be sure of before purchasing a laptop? I will be using it extensively with Final Cut Pro HD as well as many other programs
thank you all as always...

In addition to what Jerry and David said, if you have Final Cut Pro HD (4.5), you'll need to crossgrade to get the full benefits of your macbook pro.

Burning a Final cut Pro X Project with DVD Studio Pro

Hi,
A project edited in Final Cut Pro X and Compressed with Compressor 4, can you then burn to disc with DVD Studio Pro?
I have DVD Studio Pro on my system but when I burn the project to disc using DVD Studio Pro it crashes all the time.
I'm wondering if DVD Studio Pro is not compatable with a 64 bit system?
Advise is appreacated.

Thanks Tony that did it, I was using Burn but when I went to Build/Format the disc burned as it should, thanks

I would like to use a LED monitor with my macbook.

I have a 2009 13' macbook and just bought a LED LG monitor. What cable can I use to connect it to my computer. The LED came with a 15pin male cable on both ends.

It would help to know which one of the 9 different models of MacBook you have. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info (and then System Report if you’re running 10.7 Lion). When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier and post it back here.
2009 MacBooks used two different types of adapters to connect with external monitors. A Mini-DVI or a Mini DisplayPort.

Airport/TC working with MacBook Pro but not with my Mac Pro???

Hi all,
I've got a Time Capsule connected to a Westell Modem through AT&T. Needless to say; I've had a lot of issues with my setup but this one has my stumped.
After my network crashed a few days ago, I reset everything and got my Airport network running on my laptop. I cannot get it to work on my Mac Pro. My MP doesn't even see the Time Capsule when I run Airport Utility. It'll show the network on the Airport Icon at the top of the page and will even let me choose it when picking a network to connect to.
Anyone know what to do, please help!!!
Thanks!!!
Chris

On the Mac that won't connect using wireless:
Open System Preferences and click on Network
Click the Airport connection on the left
Click the Advanced button on the lower right
Look for the name of your wireless network and delete it using the - (minus) button at the bottom of the connection list. Delete any other networks that you do not need as well
Apply changes
Open Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Under the Kind column, look for any listings of Airport Network Password and delete them
Restart your computer
Keep your Mac close to the TC for now and click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen and try to log on to your wireless network.

Can I use a macbook pro 2 screen with a macbook pro 3?

my girlfriends 2007 macbook pro 3 screen stopped working yesterday so we bought a 2006 macbook pro 2 off craigslist and found out that it wont run mavricks so I was wondering if the screens were backwards compatable, like if I use the screen from the 2 and put it on the 3?
They are both the same size 15"
thank you

You might look at iFixit.com and Powerbookmedic.com and see if the two different MBP displays have the same part number.

Confused: Bought a MacBook aluminium 2.0 with a MacBook Pro keyboard!

Hello everybody!
Recently purchased MacBook aluminium. First thing I did was checking backlit keyboard. After tapping F5 and F6(signs of backlit are on them! They are not empty like on 2.0 aluminium.) I got crossed sign of backlit. I didn't know nothing about differences between 2.0 and 2.4 MacBooks, so I wasn't confused about these signs. After updating to Mountain Lion buttons are empty(after tapping - nothing happens). Appearence of Mac is perfect, so I don't have any doubts about keyboard replacement. So, I have a question: Maby Pro keyboard can be enabled for using backlit?(Sow, that keyboard is simmilar to MacBook Pro 2013). I used thirdparty soft for enabling it(LabTick) but nothing happened too. What a mistery, people?

Maybe its a secret concept of first Aluminium MacBook? Ha?

DVD Studio Pro 2 works with new MacBook Pro Intel Duo Core 2?

Thanks.

If you get it to run you should not count on it working. Even 4.0.x, you need 4.1.x to have anything that is officially supported. I am not sure if 2 evens runs well on Leopard, let alone an Intel Machine.

Acrobat 8 Pro not compatible with Win 7 Pro 64

When I changed from Win XP Pro to Win 7 Pro I could not transfer Acrobat 8 Pro. Adobe Support just informed me that Acrobat 8 Pro was not designed for Win 7 and that's it. This was pretty frustrating and gave me the opportunity to search the market. I am going to switch to PDF Suite that is coequal to Acrobat but hundreds of times favorable in price!

Support gave you the correct answer. The new underpinnings of Windows 7 makes it impossible for Acrobat 8 to function properly. It should not surprise you that new OSs require new software. Acrobat 9 is very nice software, you can get an special upgrade price from 8 to 9. Acrobat 10 is likely to be available real soon now. There are many programs available to create pdfs. Office can do so natively. If that is all you need then Acrobat may not be for you. However, for some there is nothing quite like Acrobat.

Should Soundtrack pro 3 (bundled with the studio pro 9 I just bought) load on OS X Lion? Mine isn't. It gives an error saying to check if my software works with the OS.

This isn't a major problem for me as everything else is working but would like to know if it's known to not work on Lion.
Cheers,
Karl.

windows is windows does not matter if it's in bootcamp or not
in general one can't update drivers in safe mode
in general one can just install drivers on top of the earlier version

Ipad Mini Retina with iOS 7.0.4 Launch App problem

Hi Sir,
We have an application which was working well all the way from iOS version 5 until iOS version 6; but when we upgrade the iOS to 7,we have the problem at launching the application. We need your assistance to resolve this.
The application name Neway Malaysia and it can be found in the URL https://itunes.apple.com/my/app/neway-ren-ni-dian-malaysia/id538291616?mt=8
From

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

i have tried to change the fetch setting but it keeps on changing it to default setting.
and another time this output
CM0151 PRIMARY STARTUP Config fetch failed for 10.10.14.1 Cause: TELNET:

Please find the attach the dcmaservice.log , i was not able to analyz it
Please i appreciate some help.

Without debugging, it's impossible to say exactly why things are failing. However, based on the errors, I would double-check the DCR credentials for these devices and make absolutely sure you can connect to them using the DCR credentials from the LMS server. You can confirm this by exporting the records for these devices from Common Services > Device and Credentials > Device Management. If SSH should be the protocol that works, also try telneting to the device from the LMS server on TCP port 22. You will get an SSH version string back. Make sure it is one of 1.5, 1.99, or 2.0.
The timeout problem could be symptomatic of another bug. Restarting ConfigMgmtServer (pdterm ConfigMgmtServer/pdexec ConfigMgmtServer) may help. The fact that the job timeout resets to the default means there is a problem with your regdaemon.xml file. If you post this file, I can fix it for you.

Backup causing problems with IFS files being locked

We are having occasional but significant problems with our regular IFS backups. The symptom is that random SAP batch jobs, or tp processes will fail overnight. These seem to be related to the IFS backup running at the time, and appear to be that batch jobs are unable to write their log file, or a tp process will fail due to being unable to access a file of some sort (usually log or /usr/sap/trans/tmp files).
Is there a way of making an IFS backup 'online' so that it does not lock the files but simply gets a fuzzy copy of the file?
Am I missing something?
Thanks, Andy.

Hi Andy,
what you prefer, does not exist .... There is a special AS/400 IFS online backup - but this is properitry and is not specially supported.
I would suggest to exclude the global directory /sapmnt/sid/global und /usr/sap/trans/tmp - as long as you backup the trans-dir this could always happen - even when FAR more rarely - because sometimes the other directories are needed as well.
I typically setup the systems that way, that the global directories are not included. In your case you should exclude trans/tmp as well ...

Slash with leading spaces as html text causes problems

When I am setting a JLabel or a tooltip to the following text
<html> / something</html>
I do not see anything at all. It is always when there are only spaces and then a slash.
<html>x / something</html>
will show correctly
<html> / something secondline</html>
will show the second line correctly and an empty first line
Is it a bug? You can try with the webstarter application in the java tutorial on html in swing components. It tested with jsdk 1.4.6 and and Java 6

It seems that you aren't allowed to start html with a / character. I couldn't find any reference to it, but I ran this code:
 public Sandbox() {
 JFrame frame = new JFrame();
 frame.getContentPane().add(new JLabel("<html>hi bye</html>"));
 frame.pack();
 frame.setVisible(true);
 }and tried displaying a html document with a / on the first line:
<html>
 <body>
 / hello
 This is some text before the banner 
 This is some text after the banner
 </body>
</html>And the first line didn't render. Weird.

Macbook pro 15 retina with UHD display slowness

I have connected a
Samsung display U28D590, to my Mid-2014 MBP 15 Retina with Intel Iris Pro.
My display reports a successful 60hz and is set on DispalyPort 1.2 protocol.
But still when the extra display is connected i experience hiccups, like it gets stuck and i can not move the mouse for a few seconds, sometimes even 10-20 seconds and the keyboard as well at times stops reacting, the system freezes, i think that music playback continues if exists.
i am aware to :
Using 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs with Mac computers - Apple Support
i am not sure about the effect of:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
and i even tried:
How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
i want to know if this is the best results i can get, i would love to hear from users with the same expirience, and also if having the dedicated video card
another interesting thing to note is when i go full screen, in youtube, mac gets hot, but when i play a video from my ssd with vlc and put it full screen it doesn't necesserially happen, and i can watch 2 hours without any fan noise. running the cpu hot for long period as a movie is not recommended if i am not wrong. but most important are the long hiccups.
please help me! thanks in advance.

hi happy,
thank your for you answer. maybe it is the Safari Browser when i hover an Link sometimes it flicker.
